Kesler Covered Bridge stood near Homer, Georgia, carrying County Line Road over the Middle Fork of the Broad River about 10 miles north of town. Built in 1925, it was a 69-foot single-span truss bridge distinguished by an unusual mixed design, with a Kingpost truss on one side and a Queenpost truss on the other. Foreman Robert Verner led its construction with workers Eugene Vaughn, J. A. Kesler, Grady Crump, and Daye Crump, and the bridge took its name from the Kesler family. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975, it later collapsed after severe winter weather and deterioration sometime between 1978 and 1981.
